If the word ‘beer’ conjures up stubby holders and cans of VB or Fosters, from your youth, then you are in for a treat this weekend.

Beer has entered the world of fine drinking and like wine, there is much pleasure to be had in beer tasting that showcases the subtleties and complexities of boutique beers created with much love by passionate and dedicated brewers (even for non-beer fans).

And it is true what they say some beers can be the perfect drink to have with food especially in the summer as many Asia travellers have discovered.
To know more about this new world of drinking joy or to indulge a long term beer love, join Anthony and Steve from Plonk who are the power behind Beer Day Out.

It’s Canberra’s own festival of beer that’s happening at the Old Bus Depot Markets in Kingston this Friday evening and Saturday.
Hosting more than 30 local and international craft brewers…

….the line up includes the work of both well established local Brewers like Christoph Zierholz….

and Bentspoke as well as gypsy Brewers (those up and comers who borrow the facilities of others until they get their own space) like Kevin from PACT.

There’s also live entertainment, information sessions and a wonderful array of foods on offer including Frugii’s unique beer ice-cream, offering form Akiba and a cider sorbet.
